Hello,

I am new to VBScript. I would like to know how to get the
windows short path name.  

Thanks,
RK

From the WSH 5.6 documentation:

ompositedoc.xml

Function ShowShortName(filespec)
   Dim fso, f, s
   Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
   Set f = fso.GetFile(filespec)
   s = "The short name for "   & UCase(f.Name) & "<BR>"
   s = s & "is: " & f.ShortName
   ShowShortName = s
End Function
